Float Valve, 1/2" to 3/4" 1" 304 Stainless Steel Fully Automatic Water Level Controller, Automatic Water Level Control Float Valve for Water Tank, Livestock Troughs, Pool, Distiller

With a little imagination and a large tank, you can get some stuff done!Ever seen saw?"We're gonna play a game" lol

Did not come with fittings and mounting clip/screw. Not happy, will have to find fittings and figure out how to mount it.

The new battery powered hand held pressure washers don't use pressurized water from the hydrant like a gas or electric unit does but rather siphons the water from a bucket, pool or stream. I don't think pool or stream water would be good to wash a vehicle with, so I needed a source of fresh water but did not want to stop and fill the bucket each time the water got low. I found these float valves and garden hose to 1/2”NPT adapters on Amazon and to make the water bucket auto filling. The float valve comes with a bracket, but it was not sturdy enough for my use, so I designed and 3D printed a heavy duty bracket to fit on a standard 5 gallon bucket like all the large home improvement stores have. The float valve system works great and keep the bucket full faster than the pressure washer can use the water.If you have a similar need and access to a 3D printer, I put the design on Thingiverse where you can download it for free. Just search for Thing #6631640

4 because value is great. The fittings included with this float valve are useless. The street L has Chinese threads, close to being MIP and FIP but don’t mate with any fittings at our hardware store to keep from leaking. Float threads work with brass fittings I purchased.

Needed these for some water tanks to prevent overflow, they worked perfectly

It works but it leaks no matter what i do to stop that it still leaks so it kind of defeats the purpose of even having this cause i have to shut off the hose every time i am done with a fill. I can’t just leave it on to fill on its own or it will flood my home. i got this for my dog room hoping for an automatic watering option, i ran a new water line and attached a short hose from the spigot to the auto fill unit. I tightened eveything used the stuff provided in the box. nothing worked it still leaks out of the couplings on the unit. so i have given up and iam trying somthing else.

Tapped and tapped it up but wouldn’t stop leaking.

Very good except that the surface chrome wares off really fast allowing for rust to grow
